Iran’s Chief Potentate Has Pooches…….

A classic case of “do as I say not as I do”. Dogs are considered an unclean animal in the Islamic world, so the fact that Mahmoud has alowed himself four of them, has gotten the beards of some religious leaders’ all tied in a knot.

“A decision by Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to acquire four guard dogs has upset the ayatollahs from the holy city of Qom. The four dogs, bought in Germany at a cost of 110,000 euros each, are the topic of theological controversy because Islam considers dogs to be impure.

For this reason, the government has banned owners of domestic animals from taking them on the streets of the city, and owners risk penalties or the ‘detention’ of their animals in a pound.Now that Ahmadinejad is protecting German dogs, many are asking the question: why can he have dogs while other citizens are banned?”

I’m sure that the average Iranian would be very surprised what earthly pleasures their leaders allow for themselves, while denying the same for the rest of their subjects. In a dictatorship, “do as I say, not as I do” is the golden rule. More here. *L* KGS

Melting pot societies are the only way to secure the individual…

Multiculturalism is a gross failure. Assimilation, where celebrating one’s own heritage but as a full member of the dominant culture, wins.

There Is No Such Thing As White Cultural Heritage. The West’s Legacy Is Open To All…

There’s No Common Cultural Legacy For The Alt-Right

Still, is there something to it? Is there a common heritage that will cover El Greco and Hume and Dostoyevsky? Is there one that can include the Jacobites and the Jacobins? There is, but it is not racial, and white supremacists reject it because it rejects them. The unifying heritage of Europe is religious and philosophical. It is Jerusalem and Athens, in one famous formulation. Christian religion and Greek philosophy, filtered through Roman law and culture, are the foundation of European culture. The tensions, agreements, developments and settlements between these have shaped the Western world, and these roots of Western civilization are not congenial to white supremacy.

Christianity is universal in its message and Jewish in its origins. For centuries after its founding, Christianity’s center was the Mediterranean world, including Asia Minor and North Africa. Christianity has never been defined by race, and locally-grown racist heresies are only sustainable among those ignorant of Christianity’s teachings, origins and history.

Greek philosophy is likewise ill-suited to serve as a basis for white identity. It is either too universal (addressing the human condition in general) or too local—none of us live as citizens of an ancient Greek polis. Later philosophical developments in Europe, such as the philosophies of the Enlightenment, likewise tend to be too universal for white supremacists seeking a tribal identity. As for the scientific revolution that developed within Western culture (albeit with much borrowed from outside Europe), math doesn’t care what color someone is.

Current Lord Balfour: Everyone knew Jews needed a home
As Britain prepares to celebrate 100th anniversary of declaration supporting establishment of Jewish national home in Palestine, Roderick Balfour says his great-great-uncle Arthur James Balfour would have been incredibly proud of what he and his generation set in motion, but would have been disheartened about ‘hopeless situation’ between Palestinians and Israelis.

Roger Waters Pissed Off After Kid’s Dance Academy Withdraws From Show
Roger Waters’ hateful views have led to a dance academy deciding not to perform alongside him at his Cleveland concert.
And despite pretending to play it cool, it is obvious the rock’n’roll BDS-hole is bothered.

Daniel Greenfield explains Islam 101:

"Every devout Muslim is an "Islamist". Islam is not a personal religion. It is a religion of the public space. A "moderate" Muslim would have to reject Islam as a religion of the public space, as theocracy, and that secularism would be a rejection of Islam.

Nothing in Islam exists apart from anything else. While liberals view culture and religion as a buffet that they can pick and choose from, it is a single integrated system. If you accept one part, you must accept the whole. Once you accept any aspect of Islam, you must accept its legal system and once you accept that, you must accept its governance and once you accept that, you lose your rights.''

What mainstream Islam really teaches, what they believe…

Umm al-Fahm holds service in memory of Muslim Brotherhood leader
While Arab countries barred supporters of the Islamist movement from holding events honoring Mohammed Mahdi Akef, jailed in Egypt for his involvement in killing of protesters in 2012, public ceremonies were held in only three places: Turkey, Gaza... and Israel.

Akef was sentenced to life in prison after being convicted, along with the rest of the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood, for his involvement in the killing of demonstrators outside the organization's offices in Cairo during the wave of mass protests against the regime of Mohamed Morsi in 2012.
